OBAMA DETERMINED TO ASSIST HIS MUSLIM BROTHERS IN ANY WAY HE CAN…

Ya know, ever since Barry first strutted his cool self into the Oval Office he has proven himself, time after time, to be a pretty ardent defender of those who practice that most violent of all cults, Islam.  He very much enjoys talking about what he describes as being the supposed common values that unite us in our humanity and reinforces the obligations that people of all ‘faiths’ have to each other.  He also takes great pleasure in bragging about what he sees as being the many achievements and contributions made by Muslim Americans in building the very fabric of America and strengthening the core of our democracy.  And he’s serious!

And it’s Barry’s overt favoritism toward Muslims that helps to explain his rather sanctimonious proclamation this past Monday that America does not have a religious test when it comes to admitting refugees into America, even though the actual math would tend to show that it’s just the opposite that’s true.  Because if one were to take the time to actually examine the data, one would quickly come to realize that while only 53 Syrian Christian refugees have been allowed into America, 2,098 Syrian Muslims have been ‘welcomed’ in.  And yet, I don’t ever recall hearing about a Christian walking into a crowded market, and detonating themselves.

Look, I think that we can all safely agree that everyone of every faith is suffering to some degree in a Syrian civil war that has been further complicated by the successful creation of an Islamic State throughout much of the country.  But there is absolutely no question that it’s has been the Syrian Christians who have been singled out for the worst kind of persecution under ISIS, including mass beheadings that do not discriminate against innocent women and even small children.  And despite the idiotic claims made by our monumentally idiotic president that ISIS is not to be considered a Islamic terrorist group, it very much is!

And it was during his snippy little news conference, just yesterday, that Barry “Almighty” raged, no not against the terrorists who murdered more than a hundred innocents in Paris, but against what has become a growing list of his American critics, specifically Republicans, who are uncomfortable with the idea of resettling tens of thousands of Syrian refugees here in America with every single one being a potential terrorist.  The F.B.I. has admitted that it cannot adequately vet all of these refugees. And Barry doesn’t seem too concerned that ISIS has promised to use the Syrian refugee process as a means to infiltrate the West with terrorists.

And about those bigoted Republicans who suggested we bring in Syrian refugees who are Christians, Barry raged “We don’t have religious tests to our compassion We do not close our hearts to these victims of such violence and somehow start equating the issue of refugees with the issue of terrorism.” But according to the actual numbers Barry is lying.  But then what’s new about that?  This guy’s entire life is based on a series of lies. Because the truth is, we do have a religious test, and it’s for the purpose of providing plausible deniability to Barry, that the process is, believe it or not, being administered by the United Nations.

And it’s as a direct result of this United Nations oversight that those refugees being discriminated against by the process just so happen to be both Christians as well as those who are the most victimized and persecuted in Syria. Now while sure that that is just a coincidence, there should be no role for the UN play at any point of the vetting process.  Sadly, the genocide which has taken place against whole villages of Christians in both Iraq and Syria has, up to this point, been completely ignored by Barry.  And with now being the time for him to show compassion for those he says are his brothers and sisters in Christ, what does he do?  Turns his back!

As for these Muslim refugees, sure, I suppose we could take them, but at what price?  It is simply not the smart thing to do since our country is already being overrun by economic refugees from Mexico, our bad neighbor to the South, even though in 90% of individual cases it would be the Christian thing to do.  But there comes a point when the safety and security of our citizens here at home, needs to take precedence.  And anyway, there aren’t there any number of Muslim nations, right there in the neighborhood, who could very easily be taking care of these Muslim refugees?  And the Christians could very easily be left to the West to take care of. 

Now I suppose I can see why it is that Barry tends to favor allowing undocumented Muslim refugees, versus Christian refugees, to roam free in the US.  I mean, after all:

Christians are the refugee group that has been and is in the most danger, and has suffered the most prejudice, persecution and slaughter at the hands of ISIS. 

And…

Christians refugees tend to quickly assimilate into American society, whereas, many Muslims aim to live in their own society with their own rules, undermining the culture of the "infidel" Americans.  Something they are directed to do by their religion.

And...

Christians, on the whole will not cut off the heads of innocent men, women and children given the opportunity. Instead Christians simply pray for someone they disagree with unless physically attacked.

And, of course…

Christians in the US are members in good standing of the most tolerant and educated society on the face of the earth (tolerance of genocide notwithstanding).

Meanwhile:

Muslims from Iraq and Syria are members of the most intolerant, backward and ignorant "society" on the face of the earth.

And…

Muslims routinely degrade and abuse women, including their wives and daughters.

And…

Muslim society has recently been shown to be accepting of rape and abuse of male and female children.

And…

Muslims are taught prejudice from an early age and are brought up to think of American Christians and Jews as the great Satan.

And finally…

Muslims aren’t big fans of same-sex marriage and routinely throw gays from rooftops.

So you can pretty plainly see why it is that Barry is so busy showing favoritism towards Muslims, and has almost total disregard for Christians in need. It was really wasn’t all that long ago that the population of the Middle East was 40 percent Christian.  But now, thanks to what is essentially the black plague known as Islam, that percentage is now down into single digits with the goal of those who practice the so-called religion of peace, being zero percent.  So maybe we should just bring all of the Christians here and then simply go back and turn the entire region, minus Israel of course, into glass and finally solve this Muslim infestation problem once and for all.

OBAMA SAYS HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE’S DOING!!!

I often wonder what people in other countries must be thinking about us here in America when we can, not once but twice, elect someone who is as anti-America as Barry “Almighty”.  Do they think that we have completely lost our minds?   And I can’t say that I’d blame them because I’m not really sure what scares me more about Barry, that he likely does what he does on purpose, or that he is so completely clueless that he has no idea, whatsoever, about what it is that he should be doing.

Take for instance his approach to Islamic terrorists. Barry, aka the ‘One’ we were told we had all been waiting for, has been quite busy of late refusing to acknowledge that there is any need to alter his current strategy in as it applies to bringing about the defeat of ISIS.  This even after the deadly terrorist attacks in Paris.  And what I find as being rather peculiar is the fact that he feels justified in defending his actions as “robust” and “constant.”  Man, talk about looking through rose-colored glasses.

And Barry rather emphatically denied any suggestions from the press that he might have somehow underestimated ISIS, and hasn’t done enough to root the group out of Iraq and Syria.  He said, “The strategy we are putting forward is the strategy that ultimately is going to work.”  But I’d be interested to know on what he bases such confidence.  Barry has said that when it comes to ISIS, what we are faced with is a generational problem, which sounds more like an excuse than it does a strategy.

Barry maintained that he would continue working with such stellar ‘allies’ as the Russians and Iranians in order to help combat the threat of ISIS.  He also defied those critics who dare to question his strategy, asserting that “typically the things they suggest need to be done are things we are already doing.”  And he rather pointedly defended his imbecilic comment that he actually had contained ISIS, a comment which he uttered just hours before the terrorist attacks took place in Paris.

Barry said, “When I said we are containing their spread in Iraq and Syria, in fact, they control less territory than they did last year.”  And then he went on to claim, “And the more we shrink that territory, the less they can pretend that they are somehow a functioning state.”  And he grew somewhat frustrated, as he sometimes tends to do, when members of the press repeatedly questioned his detached demeanor when speaking about the attacks in Paris and his commitment to root out ISIS.

And it was Jim Acosta of the Communist News Network (CNN) who drew a bit of the patented Barry ire when he said, “I think a lot of Americans have this frustration that they see that the United States has the greatest military in the world, it has the backing of nearly every other country in the world when it comes to taking on ISIS”  And Acosta then went on to ask, “I guess the question is, and if you’ll forgive the language, is ‘Why can’t we take out these bastards?’”

Barry scoffed at the question, repeating that he had already laid out the proper strategy for dealing with ISIS.  And instead he told reporters the terrorists were able to succeed because of their ideology.  He said, “If you have a handful of people who don’t mind dying, they can kill a lot of people.”  And he went on to say, “That’s one of the challenges of terrorism.”  On three other occasions, Barry pointed to the terrorist’s proficiency on social media as part of the reason they were so successful.

Barry sternly warned his critics who dare to suggest that more troops on the ground are what’s needed to root out the terrorist group, reminding them of the human costs of war.  He said, “What I’m not interested in doing is posing or pursuing some notion of ‘American leadership’ or ‘America winning.”’  He then added, a bit defensively, “It’s best that we don’t, you know, shoot first and aim later.”  He said, “It’s important for us to get the strategy right and the strategy we are pursuing is the right one.”

Barry’s actions since day one of his presidency have made it painfully clear just whose side it is that he’s on in this ongoing conflict.  And he stubbornly refuses the taking of any action the specific purpose of which is to keep the American people safe.  And you know, you shouldn’t have to tell people your strategy is working, it should be obvious to everyone whether it is or it isn’t.  And Barry’s strategy most definitely is not working, if the purpose of that strategy is actually to defend the homeland.

So while Barry spends an ever increasing amount of time trying to convince us that things are going exactly according to plan, those who wish to kill us are growing in both power and stature.  Which begs the question, just whose side is Barry, and a good many of his fellow Democrats, really on?  I mean when not one of the Democrat candidates for president can even bring themselves to utter the words, “Radical Islam,” what the Hell does that tell ya?  It tells you all you need to know!

OBLIMINATION, THE COMPLETE REVERSAL OF OBAMA’S FAILED POLICIES…

Over the course of the last seven years we have continued to watch as the policies put into place by Barry and his trusty sidekicks, Hitlery Clinton and then John Kerry-Heinz, have been responsible for literally one global fiasco after another.  And despite the list of the excuses, and the many denials, the net result of those policies, first dreamt up and then put into place by these reckless and blatantly irresponsible ‘leaders’ is a world now engulfed in flames and with a level of turmoil and instability that has not been seen in decades.  And yes, Barry is the common denominator.

But Barry has long made claim that it is not the policies of his administration, but those of his predecessor, and of those who oppose him that should be blamed for the growing violence in the world.  But his denials were recently dealt what I would call a pretty significant blow, and made a bit more difficult to sell when we were all provided with live coverage of the tragedy that occurred in Paris earlier this week.  A tragedy that was essentially nothing less than proof positive that the policies favored by Barry, and his team, have been a failure on what is an epic scale.  

Yes, the ISIS-initiated terrorist attacks in Paris prove at least seven things about the policies of Barry “Almighty”:

1. Strict gun laws clearly stop mass shootings.

2. ISIS is a JV team.

3. “We have contained” ISIS, as Barry declared on Good Morning America just hours before the attack.

4. We have nothing to worry about by allowing 100,000 Syrian refugees into the America.

5. When Barry proclaims a war is over, the war is over, regardless what the enemy thinks.

6. The police are the problem.

7. Islam has nothing to do with these attacks.

So as the world continues to spin wildly out of control, I would argue that the time has now come for what’s called Oblimination, or the complete reversal of Barry’s failed policies.  It is now time for America to reassert herself and to assume her rightful position as world leader.  But there is only one way to accomplish that which is becoming more imperative every single day.  And that would be for us, the American people, to possess the necessary courage to make the right decision come next November and to take it upon ourselves to reject the policies of Barry in toto. 

ON THE SUBJECT OF 2016 AND IMMIGRATION…

When this process first got started I had some pretty high hopes for Rick Perry, and then when he flamed out, I must admit, I became somewhat infatuated with ‘The Donald’.  And while it’s true he’s an outsider who has not yet been tainted by having spent much time within the beltway, I must admit that with the passage of time the bloom has now, to some degree, come off the rose.  And with his mention of a ‘Deportation Force’ I think he continues to detract from his potential as a serious candidate.

And while I am not a fan of Chris Christie, his idea of fining employers who knowingly hire those in this country illegally makes much more sense.  I mean, why is it that we cannot simply enforce those immigration laws that are already on the books?  If we simply make it too difficult for those here illegally to find meaningful employment, most, but likely not all, will go back to where they came from.  But obviously, as long as Barry “Almighty” is in the White House, and if Hiterly gets elected, that ain’t gonna happen.

And I will also let it be known that I not only voted for Marco Rubio for Senator, but I also gave his campaign some money.  My only excuse being that it was more out of not wanting Charlie Crist than actually wanting Rubio.  And of course it didn’t take long for Senator Rubio to show his true colors once he arrived in Washington, as he was only too happy to ally himself with Chuck Schumer as part of the “Gang of Eight.”  And he can still be heard pushing those very same policies that this ‘gang’ came up with.

And then of course we have the blatant immigration panderers, Bush and Kasich, aka the Dupp boys, Dick and Jack.  I think we can all agree that neither of these fellas is the least bit interested in addressing our illegal immigration problem in any meaningful way.  Their solution to the problem is to simply wave their magic wand and to allow those here illegally to stay.  Presto, we have millions of new Democrats!  Now how much sense does that make?  These two just come across as rather desperate.

And now to Dr. Carson, who I respect as being a genuinely good man.  But try as I might, I simply don’t see him as president.  While he is the near perfect role model, and very clearly demonstrates just what is possible to achieve because of the opportunities this country provides to its citizens, regardless of how left laments the unfairness of ‘the system’, I fear that he may not be up to the task of dealing with the problems this country now faces, and on nearly every front, after eight years of Barry.

Which, I guess, brings me to Senator Ted Cruz.  Now granted, like Barry, his too is a one term senator.  But to be honest, I think that that is where the similarities between these two men end, and rather abruptly.  And while some may call me a bit naïve for perhaps being a little too quick to start singing his praises, as the process moves along I’ve seen Cruz move closer and closer to the top.  And while we can all agree that there is no such thing as the ‘prefect’ candidate, to me Cruz is quite acceptable.

In conclusion I’d like to mention something that I recently read about. There is currently some talk among, I guess, those who comprise the RINO faction of the party about the possibility of drafting Mitt Romney.  While this may make sense to some inside the beltway, to those of us out here in the real world it’s nothing short of ludicrous.  It would seem that the preference amongst these RINOs would be to have Hitlery win instead of a conservative.  I will say this just once, if Romney is our nominee I will stay home!

JON LEIBOWITZ, NOT MUCH MORE THAN A WASTE OF SKIN, REALLY…

I’ve never really understood why it is that so many people seem to be of the opinion that Jonny Leibowitz, aka Jon Stewart formerly of the Daily Show, is such a smart guy.  I mean really, give anyone the army of so-called “comedy” writers that was behind this boob, and it’s likely anyone would be able to sound funny and maybe even a little smart.  However, when left to his own devices old Jon sounds neither all the bright nor particularly funny.  He just sounds stupid! 

But be that as it may it was this past Tuesday that Leibowitz was up to his old sophomoric tricks when he blasted Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ben Carson during a fundraiser in New York for, of all things, veterans.  Funny, usually it’s those of his political persuasion who couldn’t care less about the plight of our veterans.  Kinda makes me wonder where the money might really be going.  Perhaps some rehab palace for Hollywood drugees? 

So it was that Leibowitz was a featured ‘performer’ at something called the “Stand Up for Heroes” benefit at the Theater at Madison Square Garden along with fellow morons Seth Meyers, Ray Romano and ‘singer’ Bruce Springsteen.  What a cadre of leftwing nutjobs.  Supposedly they had gathered to raise funds for wounded service members and their families.  And why is it that every time Springsteen ‘sings’, he looks like he’s taking a wickedly huge dump?  

Leibowitz wasted little time in picking up right where he left off when he taped his final Daily Show appearance earlier this summer.  He said, “Are we really doing this Donald Trump thing? We’re really doing that as a country?”  He added, “He’s f***ed.”  And said. “I like to put my name in giant letters on everything I own as much as the next guy, but the only other people that do that are like 8-year-olds going to camp.”  Man, is this guy clever or what?

It was then he broke into his best Trump impression: “‘Where did I put that building? Oh, there it is, Trump. Boom. Where’s my f***ing helicopter? Boom, Trump…. Where’s my wife? Boom, Trump, nice.”  He said, “People are like, ‘I like Trump; he says what he thinks.’ What he thinks is stupid.”  And he added, “That’s like if your friend is like, ‘I would like to f*** your mom.’ Why would you say that?… I don’t give a shit if you’re politically correct, just be correct, correct.”

And then, of course, it was next that Leibowitz turned his sights on Dr. Carson, calling him “the greatest juxtaposition between volume of voice and craziness of sh** he says.”  He said, “He says the softest spoken crazy shit I’ve ever heard.”  And he went on to say, “You watch him in the debates – ‘All I said was Obamacare is like slavery… When I was young I nearly killed a nun with a… hammer.'”  Man, is that funny or what? No, not really.  More high school-like humor than anything else.

And then when it was finally time for Leibowitz to exist stage left, Springsteen returned with guitar in hand to put on yet another demonstration by one who should have long ago realized that any further attempts at singing would be nothing more than a complete waste of time.  But like most of his ilk, they never really seem to grasp when it’s time to quit as they have become so addicted to the limelight.  And these days Bruce can carry a tune with a wheelbarrow.  

You know, as a veteran myself I view any money raised by the likes of these pathetic scumbags as being pretty severely tainted, and as such I would want nothing to do with it.  Because I know that the only reason any of them even took part in this effort to raise money, was not because of any feeling of respect they might possess for any of those who have served.  It was only because it provided them with an opportunity to demonstrate just how pathetic they really are.

WILL JUSTICES ONCE AGAIN GO ROGUE?

Since it’s something that happens so infrequently, it easy to remember that the last time we heard Barry tell the truth was November of last year.  The occasion was a speech that he gave at a Chicago community center.  Now granted it was more than likely that this rather uncharacteristic bout of honesty occurred completely by accident but, nonetheless, it happened.  But what likely prompted this rather unusual exercise in truth-telling to occur in the first place was the fact that hecklers shouted at him for not doing enough, in their view, to stop deportations.

And as unaccustomed as Barry is to telling the truth, it was likely the fact that he was so determined in his attempt to defend his policy that may have, ultimately, contributed to Barry’s little slip up.  He said, "I understand you may disagree. But we've got to be able to talk honestly about these issues. All right?"  He then went on to say, "Now, you're absolutely right that there have been significant numbers of deportations. That's true."  And he went on to add, "But what you're not paying attention to is the fact that I just took action to change the law."

Yes, my friends, Barry did put it in the first-person singular: 'I just took action to change the law."  But what law, exactly, was it that Barry take it upon himself to change?  Well, our less-then-stellar Homeland Security Secretary, Jeh (Jay) Johnson managed to shed some light on that when he announced that DHS was expanding its Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program and was essentially morphing it into a new program which was going to be called Deferred Action for Parents of Americans and Lawful Permanent Residents.

Now while the former program granted "lawful presence," work authorization and the ability to get Social Security Numbers to illegal immigrants who came to the United States as minors, this so-called new and improved version of the program would go one to grant these very same things to illegal immigrants who were the parents of citizens or legal permanent residents. And it was estimated that over 4 million illegal immigrants would be eligible for this new and improved DAPA. 

However, what proved to be the flies in Barry’s immigration ointment, so to speak, were the twenty-six states, including Texas, who decided to sue in their effort to prevent our ‘Dear Beloved Leader’ from unilaterally making this change in the law.  But ‘Team Obama’ argued in federal court, that this policy, which Barry himself had described as being a "change" in the law, was in fact nothing more than an exercise of prosecutorial discretion well within the purview of Barry.  But sadly for ‘Team Obama’ the judge wasn’t buying what it was that they were selling.

Because by definition an act of prosecutorial discretion is discrete and finite: A prosecutor decides not to press charges against a person for a particular offense that has already been committed. The prosecutor does not say: I hereby license you to break that law with impunity in the future.  So what was being attempted here by Barry and his team, doesn’t quite fit within the parameters, by any stretch of the imagination, and is yet another example of how Barry continues to assume that the rules simply do not apply to him.

And it was in a brilliant opinion published back in February that U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen explained that "prosecutorial discretion" did not properly describe what ‘Team Barry’ was trying to accomplish with DAPA.  The judge said, "Instead of merely refusing to enforce the INA's removal laws against an individual, the DHS has enacted a wide-reaching program that awards legal presence, to individuals Congress has deemed deportable or removable, as well as the ability to obtain Social Security numbers, work authorization permits, and the ability to travel."

He went on to say, "Absent DAPA, these individuals would not receive these benefits."  He added, "Exercising prosecutorial discretion and/or refusing to enforce the law does not entail bestowing benefits."   He said, "Non-enforcement is just that — not enforcing the law. Non-enforcement does not entail refusing to remove these individuals as required by the law and then providing three years of immunity from that law, legal presence status, plus any benefits that may accompany legal presence under current regulations."

Judge Hanen pointed out, in referring to Barry's speech in Chicago, that it was Barry himself who had actually taken credit for changing the law.  He said, "The government must concede that there is no specific law or statute that authorizes DAPA."  He went on to say "In fact, the president announced it was the failure of Congress to pass such a law that prompted him (through his delegate, Secretary Johnson) to 'change the law.'"  And then added, "The DHS secretary is not just rewriting the laws; he is creating them from scratch."

And so it was then that it was just this week that the majority of a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit echoed Judge Hanen's very sound reasoning and upheld the injunction he imposed on Barry's "change" of law.  Of course it was immediately announced that ‘Team Obama’ would an appeal to the Supreme Court.  Now remember, this year it was five members of the Supreme Court who decided that there is a constitutional right for two people of the same sex to marry and, thus, that children have no right to a mother (or a father).

And last week the Supreme Court decided that it would take up the case the Little Sisters of the Poor who are fighting against the overreach of Barry’s administration. In this case, five justices could very well decide whether the administration can force Catholic nuns, and other Christians, to cooperate in its plan to deliver abortion-inducing drugs and devices through employer-based health care plans.  In this new case, again it could be five justices who may well get to decide if one man can change this nation's immigration laws.  Sadly, I’m not too confident about our odds.

HITLERY SAYS OBAMA DON’T GET NO RESPECT, ECONOMICALLY SPEAKING…

Hitlery Clinton must have got a big laugh when she recently said that Barry “Almighty” doesn't get the credit he deserves for his economic performance.  And then when she said, and quite confidently so, that the economy always performs much better when there is a Democrat in the White house, she must have had the folks rolling in aisles.  Don’t you think?  Oh, but wait. She wasn't joking.  The crazy bitch was serious!

However, somehow, and I could be wrong, I just don’t think that many Americans agree with Hitlery's rather charitable assessment of our ongoing economic situation. We just had a report of 1.5 percent growth in the most-recent quarter. Every poll for five years shows that voters are most concerned about jobs, falling incomes and the debt.  While climate change, a favorite issue of Barry’s, always ranks last or near last with voters.

Forty percent to 70 percent of Americans, depending on which poll you may choose to use, say that the U.S. is still in a recession.  Little has taken place on Barry’s watch that can be judged to have been a success.  We got a jobs report last Friday that was little more than another work of fiction.  And while the stock market has been on a tear since Barry entered office, many experts say that it is nothing more than a house of cards. 

And the thing is, the number of areas where things have now come so completely off the tracks far outnumber  those few areas where we can find, by any stretch of the imagination, any sort of good economic news.  And it would be difficult to argue that any of what has taken place, has occurred by accident.  Since day one of his presidency there has  always been a certain level of purpose in bringing about an economic collapse. 

For instance:

Economic growth:  Has been absolutely anemic, at best. This recovery is essentially a bust. Compare the growth rate of 2 percent under Barry with nearly 4 percent under President Reagan and 3.5 percent for a normal recovery.  This means we have $2 Trillion less gross domestic product today than we would if Barry's performance had been average (i.e., a C grade) and $3 Trillion behind the Reagan recovery of the 1980s (an A grade). If Barry had done as well as Reagan, we would have $24,000 higher annual output per household this year.

College and Health Costs:  Skyrocketing. Barry promised to lower health costs by $2,500 per family. Oops. This year we have learned that many states are reporting insurance premium increases of 10 percent, 20 percent and even 30 percent. Over the past decade, medical costs are up significantly.

University tuition costs are also surging despite Barry campaign pledges to make college more affordable. Compared with the 2008-2009 school year, tuition and fees at public four-year colleges in 2014-2015 increased by about 37 percent. Meanwhile, tuition and fees at four-year private nonprofit universities increased by about 26 percent, to $31,000 a year. The more money Barry throws at higher education, the more they raise their costs.

Real Unemployment:  Over 10 percent. The low unemployment rate of 5 percent that Barry boasts of is nothing more than a statistical trick.  The real rate of unemployment under Barry is more than twice as high. When counting underemployed part-timers and those working-age Americans who have dropped out of the labor force — mostly because they can't find a job — the rate is over 10 percent. There are now more than 90 million Americans over the age of 16 who are not working — an all-time high.

Take-Home Pay:  Falling like a proverbial rock. Since Barry took office, real household income has fallen $1,748 (from January 2009 through this June). This represents a 3.1-percent decline in take-home pay.  Real median weekly earnings have stagnated, too. Since the fourth quarter of 2008 through the first half of 2015, median weekly earnings have been flat.

Income Gaps:  Rising. The biggest income declines during Barry’s tenure have been recorded by women, Hispanics, blacks and young workers — the very groups he promised to help.  According to Sentier Research, single women saw their incomes fall by roughly 5 percent in the five years following the end of the Great Recession in 2009. Those ages 25-34 experienced an income decline of 4.4 percent. Black heads-of-households saw their income tumble by 7.7 percent, while Hispanic heads-of-households' income fell 5.6 percent.  These income declines don't even include the huge hit that families took during the 2008-2009 recession.

National Debt:  Up, Up and still UP some more. During Barry's tenure, the national debt has soared more than $7.5 Trillion to surpass $18 Trillion, and the new budget deal means that, by the time he leaves office, the debt will have nearly doubled. The federal debt has now hit more than $220,000 per household — which is like a second mortgage.

Taxes:  Way Up. Barry “Almighty” has raised taxes on investment income, dead people, medical device manufacturers, health insurance policies, smokers and hospitals — to name a few. Further, Obamacare's "individual mandate" amounts to a massive tax hike on the middle class. The U.S. now has the highest business tax in the world, and businesses are fleeing offshore and taking jobs with them.

So if Hitlery is going to whine about how little credit the media gives Barry on the economy, then I would argue that maybe Barry should start taking some of the "credit" for the shape our economy is currently in.  And he can start by taking responsibility for most of what has gone so horribly wrong.  But, as we all know, taking responsibility isn’t exactly Barry’s strong suit.  He’s much better at making excuses and blaming George W. Bush.

But in all honesty, it’s unlikely that Barry sees anything he has done as being wrong.  But that’s only because he came into office as a man on a mission.  A mission to “fundamentally transform.”  And as we look back at the economic policies that have been put into place, where most us will see intentional economic sabotage, Barry sees ‘progress’.  You see, he has accomplished exactly that which he intended to accomplish, and in spades!  

OBAMA SAYS, “IF IT’S THE LAST THING I DO!!!”

In an email sent out just this past weekend by the Democrat Party, Barry “Almighty” made it very clear that if it’s the very last thing he is able to do, he is determined to rip guns from the hands of law abiding Americans.  And in so doing, he urged his many devoted followers to join with him in his effort to enact ever-stricter gun laws.  Devoted followers who, like Barry, have very little interest in, or respect for, what our Constitution actually says.

Barry begins his idiotic little rant in very typical form by saying, "We have not gone more than eight days without a mass shooting in this country this year."  And he then goes on to say, "That means that each week, more families are grieving, more communities are being pieced back together. As a nation, we're holding everyone affected by these heartbreaking events in our prayers."  But, he goes on to add, prayers simply are not enough.

The email also provides a handy little link to a Democrats.org webpage where those who chose to do so can add their name to a petition to support Barry’s cause.  In what is obviously an effort on his part to boost the seriousness of the issue as he sees it, Barry also goes on to make the claim that there have been more than 300 mass shootings in the United States so far in 2015, killing nearly 400 and injuring 1,000.  An exaggeration to say the least.

And then in what I’m assuming was a reference to a statement by GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush after the October Oregon community college shooting, Barry said, "We can't sweep this problem under the rug, or allow ourselves to become numb to it, or accept that there's nothing we can do because 'stuff happens.'"  But what is something that is being swept under the rug is the sheer volume of gun laws, already on the books, that go unenforced.

Barry says, "Let me be clear about this: Unless we do something – change our politics and change our laws – these painful tragedies will continue."  Now of course he doesn’t bother to not lay out any sort of a specific strategy.  Barry says the issue is not about the Second Amendment, but about "commonsense reform measures" the American people ‘want’.  Despite his previous attempts at executive actions, Barry says, "I cannot change this by myself.” 

Barry goes on to say, "I need members of Congress, state legislatures, and governors who will work with me."  And he adds, "And I need people like you to stand up and say that enough is enough."  And then in trying to sound motivational, I guess, Barry proudly cites what he refers to as those things he view as being Democrat gains.  You know such as Obamacare, same-sex marriage and climate change.  Things that any sane person views as being anything but gains.

Barry said, "But this is one thing we haven't been able to do."  And he went on to say, "We have not reformed our gun laws to help reduce the unnecessary deaths we see in this country every single day."  But it is not too late, he said, "by making sure we urge future leaders to act where we have been stalled.”  Perhaps if Barry’s focus was more on the actual enforcement of gun laws that which he claims to care so much about, unnecessary deaths, would actually be reduced.  

And so it would seem then, that when Barry’s not busying himself releasing thousands of drug offenders from prison, or allowing untold numbers of those who are in this country illegally to remain here even after committing any number of violent crimes or even closing down Guantanamo Bay and bringing the terrorists locked up there here to American soil, he’s busy trying to come up with new ways to redefine our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms.

IS THIS WHAT OBAMA MEANT BY A “FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION”???

In the run up to the 2008 election Barry “Almighty’ made the promise that if elected his goal would be one of “fundamentally transforming” the United States of America.  What follows is a series of charts that makes very clear just how successful he has been in that endeavor.

1. Federal debt is soaring.

2. The feds are printing an unprecedented amount of money.

3.  Wages are stagnant.

4.  Nearly 40 percent of Americans are not working.

5.  The business workforce’s share of income is declining.

6.  Spending on food stamps is soaring.

7.  Student debt is soaring.

8.  Home-ownership is still falling.

9.  Real median family income is down.

REPUBLICAN CONTROL EXPANDS, AND YET…NOTHING EVER HAPPENS…

So while those in government who claim to be member of the Republican Party continue to expand in number, more by default than as a result of any specific deed accomplished, it’s those who align themselves with the Democrat Party that continue to dwindle in number.  And yet, even with this increase in numbers there has been no effort undertaken to stop, or to even slow, the country’s steady movement left.  Such reluctance to act has only served to encourage the Democrats who, even though fewer in number, have met with much success in their mission to destroy this nation.    

One can argue, I suppose, the fortunes of the Democrat Party changed with the arrival of Barry.  Although, at the time, many predicted something quite different would take place. The damage that Barry has inflicted upon the Democrats in Congress, as well as to those in a number of state legislatures, has been widely reported on over the last 7 years.  But of course it has been downplayed, or ignored entirely, by many on the left.  But this past Wednesday, and for the first time, it was nicely summed up nicely in just 140 characters (or less) what Barry has achieved.

This rather brilliant, and albeit quite brief, summation came from Republican operative Rory Cooper who managed to tie what can be described as being a rather nice little bow on the Democrats’ fall from grace with a Tweet that simply tallied up all of the many losses.  “Under President Obama, Democrats have lost 900+ state legislature seats, 12 governors, 69 House seats, 13 Senate seats,” Cooper tweeted. “That’s some legacy.”  We all heard about the losses experienced by the Democrats but to see them written out in such a manner, the totals seem quite amazing.

And as election results began to come in after this past Tuesday’s elections we saw that the trend appears to be continuing.  That trend being, of course, that the Republican Party had again been quite successful in expanding on 2014 mid-term gains at the state level.  Republicans maintained their control of the Virginia senate, despite the best efforts of Gov. Terry McAuliffe and tons of money spent by the likes of Mike Bloomberg, as well as the New York senate.  Republicans also held on to their majorities in both Mississippi houses while picking up seats in Pennsylvania.

And in what’s being called a surprise by many, and a win reminiscent of Larry Hogan’s 2014 win as governor of The People’s Republic of Maryland, is how easily Republican businessman Matt Bevin handily defeated Democrat Attorney General Jack Conway for the governor’s seat in Kentucky, becoming only the second Republican to hold that office in the last 40 years. Bevin’s win makes a total of 12 Republican governor pick-ups since Barry first took office.  Again, a rather significant string of losses that are said to be all the fault of the one who we had supposedly all been waiting for.

Republicans took control of a record 67 state chambers in the 2014 mid-term elections, and they continue to control both chambers in 23 states.  Meanwhile, Democrats have complete control of just seven, which leave the remaining ones with power being divided between the parties. And Republicans of course hold majorities in Congress, where Democrats hold just 44 Senate seats and 188 House seats.  And yet despite the fact that their numbers have been increasing, the direction is which our country seems to be headed has changed very little, if at all.

And yet, what have the Republicans managed to do with this growing power that they possess?  Not much of anything, really!  Other than appearing to be only too happy to assist Barry “Almighty” in doing just about anything he wants to do in his ongoing effort to “fundamentally transform’ this country.  Now granted, while we have seen most of such assistance coming more from those Republicans inside the beltway, there has been more than a few out beyond the beltway who have also been willing to assist Barry in his mission to destroy our country.

And frankly, I’m a bit perplexed why it is that people continue to vote for Republicans, especially when we continue get little or nothing in return.  They make all manner of promises with apparently no intension of following through.  The tactic worked quite well for them in both 2010 and again in 2014.  In Washington there has been little or no push back against the rabid spending of Barry “Almighty”, and even less has been accomplished as far as reversing the course that this country has been on for decades, but especially over the course of the last seven years.

I’m at my wits end.  While it sounds encouraging to hear how it is that the Democrats have been getting their collective ass handed to them over the last few election cycles, what do we on the right have to show for any if it?  Jack shit, that’s what!  What, are we just supposed to walk around with our chests all puffed out because we own more states?  Or that we have more House seats than at any time since World War II?  Big deal!  How about we flex our political muscle a little?  How about we DO something for the country?  But nope, it’s just more of us to cower in the corner!
